Morphology
The phrase's meaning — the time when someone or something arrives — is directly and compositionally derived from 'arrival' (the action of coming) + 'time' (a point or moment). This is a common noun-noun combination and a cross-linguistic, transparent pattern, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily understand it.
Etymology
Arrival time comes from old travel schedules that showed the clock time a train or plane would reach a place. The words arrival and time together make a clear picture: a schedule with the exact minute when a train or plane will arrive, so it means 'the scheduled or expected time of arrival'.
